Stop demonizing wolves.
Like seriously. Wolves we see in movies and media… Not how wolves behave. At all.
1. A lone wolf is cool, strong and, something to strive to be. FALSE.
Lone wolves have either lost, left or been pushed out of a pack. They are likely starving, lonely and/or looking for a new family or mate. Wolves are highly social and need companionship. They don’t want to be alone.
2. An alpha wolf is the biggest, baddest wolf in the pack who fights for their position. FALSE.
There are TWO Alpha wolves in a pack. They are mom and dad, the oldest and usually the smartest cause they have experienced the most. They are usually more timid and less likely to put themselves in danger because they are the only wolves in the pack that breed. If they die, the rest of the family will likely loose their way and eventually break apart.
Biggest wolves are usually the ‘betas’ who are children of the alphas (cause most everyone in the pack are puppies from mom and dad) and are generally more likely to investigate.
3. Wolves are brave and will hunt down intruders to there territory. FALSE.
Wolves are HUGE scaredy cats. They are naturally neophobic after about 6months to a year. Something new and different shows up in there territory, they are likely to avoid or keep their distance. They are NOT going to attack unless food or puppies are involved. They are great at communicating and you will know you need to back off long before you are in danger. This also means that no, that ‘wolf dog’ is not going to be a loyal and protective pet.
4. Wolves adopt. This is true.
Wolves are puppy crazy. Like they love puppies (for the most part) and its very common for packs to adopt puppies into their family. No issues with breeding cause, only mom and dad are allowed to do that. this is a way that puppies breed in captivity have been introduced to the wild, by being left near known nursing females and the pack will often come find them and bring them home. You want to known how much they love puppies? Wolves will give up their own meals to make sure puppies get fed first. Wolves can gorge themselves on up to 20lb of food and have been seen regurgitating for puppies and pregnant mothers.
Please stop demonizing wolves.
Like look at these idiots. I love them so much. Stand up too fast and you scary. That thing that touched the ground, its mine now. They want your shirt and you say no so they growl, tickle their tongue and they are just like WHY!? Trust a growling wolf way more than a dog any day. (All these guys live at a sanctuary for captive born and rescued wolves)
David Suchet on his signature Hercule Poirot walk Agatha Christie’s Poirot (1989 - 2013)
- Gavin Esler In Conversation with David Suchet, December 7 2017
Mutaz Essa Barshim and Gianmarco Tamberi decided to share the title in the men’s high jump.
SW daemons AU - previous - next
Anakin Skywalker
Whilla
S: Female
Species: ???
RL: ???
Many Jedi and the general public debated about what could she be, most agree it’s some creature from the outer rim. Some of the most religious Jedi have their own theories
She usually shifted into desert creatures and reptiles before settling
Settled at AOTC, when Anakin arrived to Tatooine to save his mother, it was the first time she had taken that form, not even she can explain why she choose that one
Is friends with many, but if you provoke her, she will snarl back at you, an uncommon trait for a daemon
Always ready to fight, ride or die
Freely talks with Ahsoka, Obi wan, Padme, the Chancellor and their daemons and the 501st (although Palpatine’s daemon feels off, she never talks)
Preens with attention but can be more serious than Anakin most of the time
Wants to cuddle with Ahsoka and Obi wan daemons but knows she can’t, so she is happy whenever they see Padme’s, she loves to cuddle with him, she is clingy
They plan flight strategies together, she often demonstrates the logistics, she never crashes, she lands with style
According to the holograms when Anakin kneeled before Sidious, his daemon looked a bit molty, had some patches without feathers. This had previously happened soon after the tusken massacre, Anakin believed it was because of the fight
At the fight at Mustafar she let Obi wan’s daemon go once, she couldn’t hurt her. Later when the duel was over and Whilla saw Obi wan walk away, he didn’t look back, she did
She got burnt by trying to pull Anakin away from the lava, her feathers caught fire and her soul lost hers
Notes
Padme has a white stag daemon, and yes, he gets fancy outfits too, they are both divas. She has to dress him.
Padme and her handmaiden’s daemons talk with each other
Of course he talks with Anakin and his daemon too
Whilla loves to attach pretty ribbons into his antlers, he loves it too
Keeping their relationship a secret gets more ridiculous x2, how do you act like you haven’t touched souls
Yes, I’m not being subtle
Species: Starbird
RL: Phoenix
I tried to keep the canon idea but give it a twist, this is the reason of why I started this AU
Is Anakin the chosen one?, we don’t know, what we know is that he is always plagued with conflict between light and dark so his daemon should represent that
A Starbird in the Light is remade by fire, a Starbird in the Dark becomes the ashes themselves. They are deeply connected to the force and they are affected more deeply by it
Baby elephant thought man was drowning and rushed to save him

“ Since its installation Mr. Trash Wheel has intercepted over 3 million pounds of trash, making the harbor not only cleaner and more beautiful, but also a nicer home for local wildlife as well as waterfront businesses. Four different wheels now sit in Baltimore’s rivers, and soon more will be helping clean other cities across the globe. “
…
“If you go to MrTrashWheel.com you can actually download a spreadsheet of every dumpster we’ve pulled out of the harbor over the past seven years, with an estimate of different types of trash that was in that dumpster,” Lindquist said. “We know that we’ve pulled out over a million styrofoam containers from the harbor, and that’s the sort of information, data and photos that we share with our elected officials to let them know just how big of a problem this is.”
…
“Mr. Trash Wheel has a few relatives in Baltimore, including Professor Trash Wheel, the first female Trash Wheel; Captain Trash Wheel, who’s nonbinary; and Gwynnda The Good Wheel of the West, who was recently the star of a ribbon cutting ceremony to mark her installation. They all have their own likes and dislikes on their public profiles online.
They’re also hungry, with a reputation for being able to gobble up larger pieces of trash, including a guitar, a full-size beer keg and on one occasion a ball python who escaped from its owner and made a home for itself on the warm battery casing of one of the Trash Wheels. Because the Trash Wheels don’t harm animals, they’ve become a kind of refuge for creatures seeking a safe place to nest. A mother duck once laid its eggs under the conveyor belt, and fish enjoy the oxygenated water that’s created as the wheel turns in the river during the summer.”
…
“ If you’re a city leader or official, you can adopt your own Trash Wheel at MrTrashWheel.com. “

5 Criminally Underrated Audio Drama: Supernatural Fiction Edition
Always hard to resist a good bit of supernatural fiction, who doesn't love some good monsters and mysterious happenings? Podcasts certainly have no shortage of it, and better yet, it's almost all very queer.
There's only a few popular supernatural podcasts, most of which are more horror or fantasy leaning anyway, but there are some incredible lesser known ones that could easily fill that space! Without further ado, here are 5 absolutely quality supernatural podcasts.
Up to date as of 16th July 2021
Jar of Rebuke
"Join in Dr. Jared Hel's journey as he works to re-discover his forgotten past and learns about various entities and anomalies within the small farm town of Wichton for an organization called 'The Enclosure'. With creatures and stories based upon real legends and lore within the midwestern United States, follow along as Jared tries to figure out the secrets of the town as well as the secrets of their own identity."
Adventures of an unkillable (well, he can be killed, just doesn't stay that way) amnesiac scientist as they investigate strange creatures, make new friends, and lots of tasty food in the small town he's living in. Really well written and paced, full of cool creatures and enticing mystery with a light dash of horror, and an absolutely endearing lead. Very queer. There are currently 18 episodes of between 10 and 27 mins each.
Jar of Rebuke is available on major podcasting platforms and Spotify. Content warnings are given at the start of each episode from season 2, though not for earlier episodes, and transcripts of each episode are available on the website. You can also follow their tumblr at @jarofrebukepodcast!
Monstrous Agonies
"From werewolves in the doghouse to new ghouls at work, there's no problem too strange for this weekly advice segment, from the UK's only dedicated radio service for the creature community"
A community advice radio show in a world where humans and monsters and creatures of all kinds live together in a world just like our own. Delightful exploration of the cultural and everyday aspects of this world, as well as individual tales of familial, platonic, romantic, and (non-explicit) sexual intimacy and conflict. Simple but clean soundwork with the absolutely most soothing narrator/presenter I've encountered, and of course, both subtle and overt queer rep. Season 1 has just finished, there are currently 35 episodes of between 10 and 20 minutes each.
Monstrous Agonies is available on major podcasting platforms and Spotify. There are no content warnings available, but transcripts are linked in the show notes of each episode. You can also follow their tumblr at @monstrousagonies!
Murray Mysteries
"A gothic-comedy audio retelling of Bram Stoker's Dracula"
A super fun, super queer, and honestly super faithful modern adaptation of Dracula. Instead of Mina's diary, it's the podcast she and her flat-mate Lucy, run together! The friendship between the two feels genuine in a way shows rarely capture. Van Helsing has the same cool but weird professor energy of the original that adaptations never get quite right. Dracula himself has got the be the most fun and well thought-out modern take on him I've seen. Mina and Jonathan are still the absolute sweetest but with the inspired addition of being an acespec bi couple. Lucy's three suitors are all different genders. I could go on. It's also just, really funny. You don't have to have read Dracula to hear it, but it'll still be an extra layer of fun if you have. Season 2 is currently airing, and 21 episodes of roughly 8 minutes each are available.

The Night Post
"In Gilt City, conscripted couriers are both respected and shunned. They inhabit the borderlands between a growing industrial society and the untamed, arcane frontier that surrounds it. The Night Post is a weekly supernatural audio drama about survival, tradition, and the vast unknown."
After his husband goes missing, Milo is conscripted to take his place as a courier. But nights delivering the mail in and around his city are filled with unexplained strangeness even the other couriers, Val and Clementine, can't anticipate, and while looking for his husband, they find far more and far stranger. Really well made, acted, written, full of more mystery and intrigue than I can hope to do justice to here. And it's very queer. The Night Post is on break between seasons, 15 main episodes of roughly 15-20 mins each, and 4 minisodes of about 5 mins each are currently available.
The Night Post is available on major podcasting platforms and Spotify. It has content warnings at the top of the transcripts, which are linked in the show notes of each episode. You can also follow their tumblr at @thenightpost!
The Way We Haunt Now
"Eulalie Elizabeth Reed is haunted by lots of things. Paths not taken. Failed relationships. Mistakes. Fears. Hopes. But she’s never been properly haunted before. That’s about to change. The Way We Haunt Now is a lighthearted horror audio drama about female friendships, found family, and fighting the narratives that try to define us––even in the afterlife. Oh, and ghosts. Did we mention ghosts?"
Eulalie has always been a little haunted, but after she comes home with an antique phonograph, this becomes a bit more literal. What starts off unnervingly spooky and very mysterious becomes a gentle and wholesome ghost story. I love the chill vibe of it, the mystery, the optimistic outlook on humanity, well thought-out soundwork. They are currently between seasons and crowdfunding for season 2! At present there are 10 episodes of 15-20 mins each, and one 5 min minisode available.

Happy Birthday, Sir David Suchet! (b. May 2 1946)
“He’s very respectful and he’s very charming, but my son-in-law gave the best answer, which is that ‘Poirot is enduring because he’s a great moral compass and people would like to be him’. Whenever you watch him, as he sums up a case, you think the world is a better place.” - David Suchet on Poirot’s enduring appeal, The Scotsman interview, June 7 2013

Me and my mutuals rebloging the same post
Me and my friend rewatched first five episodes of resident Alien yesterday so I drew Asta and Harry.
I really really really love this show
I had to draw this scene , I love Resident Alien !! you should all check it
this was a long undertaking but i’m beyond excited to post what i believe is the most comprehensive daemon-finding quiz to date, featuring 34 categories of animals and over 320 total possible outcomes! from insects to owls to seals to wild cats, you’re sure to find a unique result that fits your personality.
tag or comment what your daemon would be! :) mine’s a cocker spaniel!
EDIT: the quiz has two parts, the category which this post links to (34 options), and then the specific animal within that category (5-15 options) which you’re linked to once you get your result!
Loved this scene from ep 4. Please watch resident alien, it's awesome
